Vision Hills Sanctuary
Dog
Adoption Application

Please answer the following questions before deciding on your potential dog. We
try to ensure the best possible match between animal and adopter. Remember
that this is a lifetime commitment. You will be asked to sign a legal
contract when adopting one of our dogs and you must pay an adoption fee of
$200. This fee includes spaying or neutering. The fees go directly to
Vision Hills to
help pay for upkeep and medical care. Keep in mind the following points:

The adopter must be within driving distance of Austin,
Texas. We do not ship dogs.

Dogs must be housed indoors. An onsite visit is required.

Dogs live an average of 10 - 12 years. We are
looking for those special adopters who will make every effort possible
to keep their companion for the entire life of the dog despite life style changes (divorce, moving, etc).

Dogs may not be adopted as gifts. All members of a household
should visit the prospective dog and apply for adoption.

Dogs will not be placed in a home where there is an unneutered or unspayed
dog.

We do not adopt dogs to children. We DO adopt dogs to families. An adult must sign the adoption contract. Please do not have your
children call or email. Applicants under 18 years of age must have a parent or legal guardian
apply on their behalf.

Please understand that the
dogs available for adoption are all housed in foster homes. We do not have a shelter
facility. We rely on the kindness of volunteers to care for and socialize our
foster dogs. Sometimes, if a dog has been fostered for a long period of
time, a strong bond forms between the foster parent and the animal. The foster
parent has the final determination in whether or not the dog will be
relinquished into your custody.
